Chapter 312 So You Know It Long Ago

Jinxiu Pavilion of Marquis Mansion of Wu'an.

Hearing this, Xiao Yun's face turned pale instantly, and he shook his head: "Impossible! How could he know?"

Xiao Jinxi stood up instantly, and walked over slowly: "Xiao Yun, for your mother's safety, I believe that you didn't specifically tell Emperor Ming Xi your identity."

"Think about it carefully, have you accidentally slipped your mouth?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yun desperately thought about it for a long time, but shook his head desperately and said: "No, I never mentioned it. Even in the years when Prince Xiao invited him into the mansion, I still kept it in mind and dared not mention half a word. .”

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxi sighed, perhaps, sometimes unintentional mistakes are more fatal!

After a while, Xiao Jinxi stepped forward, picked up the small plate on the coffee table, looked at the almond cake inside, his eyes darkened, and asked, "Xiao Yun, did you bring the almond cake made by your mother to Emperor Mingxi?" Tried it?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yun, who was lowering his head to think about it, instantly raised his head and looked at the plate of almond cake. After a while, his complexion became even paler, his lips trembled, and his eyes were filled with disbelief, and he murmured: "How is it possible? How is it possible? It's just some almond cake! How could he have found out!"

really!Xiao Jinxi's heart trembled, and he put the plate in his hand on the coffee table in an instant, and his voice became cold: "Xiao Yun, the first time you brought almond cake to Emperor Mingxi was the New Year's Day in the fifth year of Zongyuan, right?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yun looked at Xiao Jinxi in astonishment!
Xiao Jinxi understood instantly, but smiled wryly: "Before I found you, your mother would go to the hillside in the north to accompany you during the New Year! Because that's where you got lost."

"In the fourth year of Zongyuan, you returned to the Fallen Leaves Valley because of the beauty, so you met your mother. The new year in the fifth year of Zongyuan was the first New Year when you met. Your mother brought you and your brother almond cake."

Then the voice turned cold: "And you, you brought it to the sixth prince Murong Xuan!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yun stared at the almond cake with disbelief in his eyes: "But how could he know it with just a few pieces of pastry?"

Xiao Jinxi shook her head helplessly and said: "Yes, I didn't expect it at first. But since your brother disappeared, I have been looking for the reason! Since you didn't tell me, how could Murong Xuan know?"

"I heard that your mother also made almond cake for you recently. I heard that you like it very much. I also just found out that every year when your mother returns to her hometown, she will bring it to your two brothers. It's just a piece of pastry, what a small thing! "

"Xiao Yun, maybe you seldom eat cakes. You only know that this almond cake is delicious, but you don't know its difference!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yun instantly raised his head to look at Xiao Jinxi, with shock in his eyes, he asked in doubt, "What's the difference?"

Xiao Jinxi said helplessly: "The almond cake made by Mother Zhao has a faint fragrance of jasmine wrapped in the almonds, because jasmine powder is added in it. This is something that the almond cakes outside don't have."

Hearing this, Xiao Yun was stunned for a moment, and murmured: "Jasmine!"

Xiao Jinxi's eyes darkened: "Xiao Yun, do you know? In the fifth year of Zongyuan, after Concubine Li died of illness, when I went to Shoukang Palace to see Mo Yi, I would bring Mo Yi this almond cake every time."

"Thinking about that time now, Mo Yi once told me that the almond cake I brought him a few days ago had disappeared before he finished eating it. Perhaps it was stolen by that palace man with unclean hands and feet."

"And at that time, Liu Quan was working in Shoukang Palace!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yun looked at Xiao Jinxi in astonishment: "You mean, the Sixth Prince only knew about this because of Liu Quan."

Xiao Jinxi's eyes darkened: "Xiao Yun, I also ate the almond cake in the palace back then, but it didn't taste like this, and even the shape was different."

"On the front foot, you brought such a special almond cake to Murong Xuan. On the back foot, he discovered that the almond cake brought to Shoukang Palace by the eldest lady of the Marquis of Wu'an actually tastes the same!"

"Do you think Murong Xuan won't doubt your relationship with Marquis of Wu'an?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yun desperately shook his head, still in disbelief: "How is it possible! How is it possible!"

Xiao Jinxi continued: "You think that no matter how unfavored the Sixth Prince was, he was still a prince. It is impossible that he would be short of a few cakes, right?"

"But Murong Xuan has trusted Liu Quan so much since he was a child. If he gets the delicious cakes from you, will he reward Liu Quan?"

"And then, Liu Quan happened to be in Shoukang Palace again, and saw the exact same almond cake! After trying it secretly, I found out that even the taste is the same!"

"And Liu Quan knows that it was brought to Shoukang Palace by the eldest lady of Marquis of Wu'an. Will he tell Murong Xuan!"

"Perhaps, Murong Xuan didn't know about your relationship with Nanny Zhao at the beginning. But he absolutely knew that your relationship with the Marquis of Wu'an was unusual. Otherwise, why would he give you cakes for a big man."

Hearing this, Xiao Yun smiled wryly for a moment: "So, since that year, he knew it, he knew it!"

There was hostility in Xiao Jinxi's eyes, and he continued: "In the sixth year of Zongyuan, in order to build a relationship with me, Murong Xuan planned the fall of the Imperial Garden during the New Year banquet, and became my savior!"

"Afterwards, I knew that his mother and concubine died early, and I felt pity for him. Every time I entered the palace, I would go to Qianxi Palace to see him, but that was all. I was young at that time, and I didn't think about it at all!"

"And this kind of approach is far from achieving Murong Xuan's goal! Slowly, he became anxious. Because he knew that the Marquis of Wu'an never had a personal relationship with the prince, and it would be even more impossible when he left the palace to establish a mansion." Already!"

"He has known for a long time that you have an unusual relationship with the Marquis of Wu'an. So, he started to think of ways from you!"

"In the ninth year of Zongyuan, he was seriously ill, and you, at that time, came to the Marquis of Wu'an to look for your mother, right?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yun smiled wryly for a moment: "Ha... ha... That time he was seriously ill and had a high fever for several days. I went to see him secretly, but he had a high fever and cried to me, saying The other princes have their concubines to take care of them, but he doesn't! The other princes have their mother's support, but he stays alone in the deep palace!"

"It's the first time since Mei'er left that he cried like this in front of me! That night, I was helpless, and I didn't know how to help him!"

"Afterwards, I thought of my mother and the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion. But I didn't expect that he knew about it a long time ago, but he pretended not to know it!"

Hearing this, Xiao Jinxi finally understood, Murong Xuan, so this is how you entered the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion!It turns out that you have already taken advantage of your own biological father.That's right, this father is shameful to you, of course you will take advantage of it!

Xiao Jinxi smiled wryly: "When Murong Xuan entered the mansion for the first time, it was New Year's Eve, and that was the first time Nanny Zhao didn't return to her hometown during the New Year. She said that the New Year was festive, so she cooked a table of dishes for me and my brother, and that I also believed it."

"Now that I think about it, your mother cooked that table of dishes herself just to meet him."

"At that time, I didn't know it. I happily introduced it, saying that this is Zhao Mama, who is with my grandmother, and the dishes she cooks are delicious. I usually eat the dishes made by Zhao Mama. It's not easy!"

"And among the dishes on that table, there is your mother's best almond cake."

"In the tenth year of Zongyuan, Murong Xuan left the palace to set up a mansion. From then on, it will be much more convenient for him to investigate secretly. Moreover, there is Liu Quan to help him!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yun collapsed in an instant. In order to avoid it and not reveal her mother's identity, since you entered the Marquis of Wu'an's residence, I have never dared to ask a question. Who knows, you already knew it!
